Godwin isn't the point. The cynical issue is, that it even wasn't a joke
about women, but men, so I apologized + others and me explained the
joke, but the insults won't stop. 

How should countries in the real world stop a war, if humans are unable
to excuse a misunderstanding that didn't physically hurt anybody?

And even if on a mailing list something really bad should happen. Isn't
there a time when it should stop? Should this become a thread that will
be continued in let's say thousand years ;).

IMO nothing can be bad with a joke about men, women, Germans, Jews etc.,
it becomes bad if people have got bad intentions. Tony has got a bad
intention or he's serious sick and not aware about the difference of the
order to kill people and what happened on this list.
